Is it necessary to notify a police officer that you're carrying a concealed weapon during a traffic stop in West Virginia?

  1. Yes, it is mandatory

  2. No, but strongly recommended

  3. No, it is not required

  4. Yes, but only if asked

The correct answer is: No, it is not required

In West Virginia, there is no legal requirement to notify a police officer of a concealed weapon during a traffic stop. Option A is incorrect because it suggests that it is mandatory, which is not the case. Option B is incorrect because it still suggests that it is strongly recommended, but there is no legal obligation to do so. Option D is also incorrect because it suggests that the police officer may ask, but this is not required by law in West Virginia. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
